Resilience: that ability to bounce back from adversity.
It is what allows you to recover from change or hardship, whether in the workplace or life in general.

As a leader, you can change your views, habits, and responses by modifying your thoughts and actions, which will help broaden your outlook and become less narrowly focused – and more able to adapt to change.

To become more resilient, center on these 8areas:

1. Accept change.
Find ways to become more comfortable with change. Change is constant and inevitable, and you can be successful if you accept it rather than resist it.

2. Become a continuous learner.
Learn new skills, gain new understandings, and apply them during times of change. Do not hold onto old behaviors and skills, especially when it’s obvious that they don’t work anymore.

3. Take charge.
Embrace self-empowerment. Take charge of your own career and your own development. Don’t expect someone else to guide the way.

4. Find your sense of purpose.
Develop a “personal why” that gives your work meaning or helps you put it into a larger context. A clear sense of purpose helps you to assess setbacks within the framework of a broader perspective.

5. Pay attention to self-identity.
Form your identity apart from your job. A job is just one facet of your identity, and a career is just one aspect of your life. Separate who you are from what you do.

6. Cultivate relationships.
Develop and nurture a broad network of personal and professional relationships. Personal relationships create a strong base of support — a critical element in achieving goals, dealing with hardships and developing perspective.

7. Reflect.
Whether you’re riding a success or enduring a hardship, make time for reflection. Reflection fosters learning, new perspectives, and a degree of self-awareness that can enhance your resiliency.

8. Skill shift.
Question (and even change) your definition of yourself or your career. Reframe how you see your skills, talents, and interests. By casting your skills in a new light, you can see how they might shift into new patterns of work and behavior.

Showrunner Steve Holland is certainly working on the assumption that the
upcoming season will have to wrap up the entire show
and not assuming that CBS will renew it for season 13. "We're not leaving anything on the table in season 12," he promised. "If there are stories we want to do, we will put them out there and see what happens."

If you’re a
dog owner
you know it’s perfectly normal for your pup to chew on things and be protective of his or her territory. When normal chewing — on things you give the approval seal to — turns into destructive behavior, however, you’re talking about a while different ball of wax. If you have a destructive , you might be in for some expensive repairs for things like furniture, shoes, doors, and carpet.

According to
The Telegraph
, Esure Pet Insurance interviewed 3,000
dog owners
regarding items they had to repair or replace because their canines destroyed them. Of the 3,000 interviewed, almost two-thirds had to shell out for their animal’s destruction. Keep reading to find out what breeds are most destructive — and what each cost interviewees on average over the dog’s lifetime.

1. Great Dane

Great Danes are among the largest
breeds of dogs
, and although they’re known for being gentle giants with people, they do have a destructive side. According to the website
yourpurebredpuppy
, Great Danes do not like being left alone — that’s when they get into trouble and start chewing. And don’t forget that a Great Dane’s size alone makes him or her like a bull in a china shop.

These tiny dogs are hella chewers, according to
ChihuahuaWardrobe.com
. Rugs, carpet, furniture, clothes, shoes — they’re all fair game for these little devils.

There are different reasons for the chewing, including too much energy, boredom, separation anxiety, and nervousness. If this is your breed of choice, keep a lot of rope, rawhide, and squeaky toys around and hope for the best.
